LIVERMORE FALLS — Police are trying to find out who snapped off a tree planted in the sidewalk on Main Street on Thursday night or early Friday morning.

It was snapped off about a foot from the ground and found lying on the sidewalk in front of the Androscoggin Valley Medical Arts Center, officer Devon Bohacik said. It appears it was run over, he said.

The cage around it and the grate could be salvaged, Bohacik said.

The decorative tree is one of several planted before the center opened Jan. 23, 2012.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call the Livermore Falls Police Department at 207-897-3424.
